Micah Taylor was released from the hospital and booked into Douglas County Corrections Saturday for assault on an officer, flight to avoid arrest, delivery of a controlled substance - marijuana, possession of a deadly weapon (brass knuckles) during the commission of a felony, in addition to warrants out of Sarpy County.

According to a press release, the Omaha Police Gang Unit was conducting a drug surveillance operation on Micah Taylor around 2:15 p.m. Thursday.

Minutes after the transaction, Staskiewicz stopped Taylor north of the Lake Street on-ramp.

Taylor refused to get out of the vehicle- and drove forward when Staskiewicz tried to pull him out of the car, dragging the officer.

That's when Staskiewicz fired three shots- hitting Taylor in the neck once.

Gang Unit officers and police helicopter ABLE One followed Taylor on Highway 75 until stop sticks caused him to crash.

Taylor got out of the car with his arms raised, and officers took him into custody with no other use of force.

Taylor will be booked on a felony domestic violence warrant out of Sarpy county as soon as he's released from the hospital.

He'll also face charges of assault on an officer, flight to avoid arrest- and other counts related to the chase.

Officer Staskiewicz is on administrative duty- per departmental policy.
